$720 a month from $5k newsletter investment
Earlier this year I bought some cheap ads on a āSide Hustle Newsletterāā¦(Using Shogun Traffic Method) They were extremely profitable. So profitable I bought ads for months out (even cheaper)⦠Then we made a soft offer to buy the newsletter. We Zoomed⦠We worked a deal and I ended up buying the whole newsletter with about 5,000 subs on Substack and 5,000 on Medium (with overlapping subs)⦠Investment? $5,000. I turned it over to Jimmy to monetize⦠And it took a couple months to get our sea legs on. But last month we did $720 from subscription revenue alone. Thatās 170% annualized return just from subscription revenue. We have a DOZEN monetization paths from one investment. From AI tools to sponsorships. To bolting on a community which is one of the most lucrative and fun investments which adds another dozen monetization paths. Iāve only written one email to the list. Jimmy is handling the rest 100% hands off for me. Weāve got a 60/40 split. I get 60 because I cover all the expenses. I see the subscription revenue alone to grow to $5k a month by this time next year. Not bad for a $5k investment. Newsletters are just ONE perfect 5th Quadrant Investment. You can use Shogun Traffic Method to vet them out and KNOW theyāll be profitable before you buy them. Now for contrast⦠I also own a closed end fund which returns $5800 a year (5.8% fed tax free on $100k) but Iād need over $150,000 to make $720 per month. Finding another 5th Quadrant Investment to cash flow $720 a month is way faster and more fun than saving up 150 gees. I just made one in AI that was $1000 for a year and Iām already at $500+ a month. Right now⦠Sitting in the Serve No Master Kajabi portal⦠ā¦are the 2 1/2 days of recordings, transcripts and manual on investing in 5th Quadrant investments which I get disappointed if they donāt return 100% annually at least. Iām happier with 100% a month returns. I also want them to be HANDS OFF with all I do is keep an eye on them or strategize how to squeeze more juice from the fruit.
